    fix uninitialized variable error in do_poll()
    
    Now that CONFIG_HVM can (and should) be turned off for the shim, gcc 8.2
    apparently is no longer sure that "port" is indeed initialized at
    
        if ( sched_poll->nr_ports == 1 )
            v->poll_evtchn = port;
    
    It doesn't look to be impossible for the compiler to prove it is not,
    but we also can't rely on that to be the case. Add an initializer.
